Week 91

Happy are we, malipay ta Hello Everybody! Today has been great and sadly uneventful. We had a great meeting and learned about family history and how we can use it to help people come unto Christ as well! This week we found many great people and had Zone Conference where I was able to see many friends in the mission. We also had interviews which were really great! And I am really striving to be better and take president's counsel to me to heart. I am really happy for the work and responsibilities I have that I can grow always. The Lord puts all His effort in for us, even all and more! I imagine that Christ could have done the atonement and then just rest. But He continued and continues to lead and guide us perfectly.  Jacob 5:47 "But what could I have done more in my vineyard? Have I slackened mine hand, that I have not nourished it?

How fortunate in this sense that we can give 1st class devotion to a first class cause. As I have witnessed here many people make many different choices. I look closer and closer at myself and wonder what more is there to be done that I can fulfill my divine identity as God's Son? Just as a prince fulfills the role of his father as king.

Ang mabuting pastol. Modawat ba mo siya sa imong tibuok kalag   Hi Friends! I guess the homecoming talk will be Sunday July 13. Invite your friends to come worship Christ with us! This week was amazing as we met many people and were able go interview 2 people for baptism. It was a great experience to see these people ready to be baptized into Jesus Christ's living church. I remember thinking before what a bold statement to say 'The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only Church on Earth that is Christ's true church, His Church, and is guided directly by Jesus Christ Himself.' This would be very extreme even blasphemy, IF it wasn't true... But it is true! Christ said I came unto my own and my own received me not.  As we see even today some people reject Jesus Christ. But many just receive a portion. Just a sliver even, of Christ and His Gospel. What a blessing it is to be a part of Christ's Church. We know His plan and where we came from: why are ...
